That Time of Year Again

It feels just like yesterday that I was writing last years blog about the Winter Solstice. This year I am happy to report that we have finally moved after months of renovation and hardships and hopefully we will stay where we are for at least a few years. I am slowly getting back into all the things I feel driven to do, and feel myself changing. The best way for me to say it is that I feel like I am growing up and into who I am. Instead of false versions of myself I have a clear view of my soul, and although I may still be surrounded and participating in the trappings of all the things I thought I was, I feel my clear vision opening and expanding into my life and changing my perspective. Much has to do with my relation to the earth and to humanity. Much has to do with my role, my calling, my dream, my path.

We are very happy in our new home. We are back to the first floor of a house that is being renovated, and although we had more room upstairs, down here we feel more grounded, and have direct access to the garden. I am extremely excited to plan next years garden this winter, and am going to plant a medicine wheel garden with herbs and veggies. This upcoming year I will also see my grandparents who live in another country, and it may be for the last time. Joy at reunion mixed with grief. And so many other new beginnings this year, as I finish my case study work and begin my natural health practice. Oh the plans I have. They are spilling out from my project management software.

Somehow I started reading the 2nd part of a trilogy and am half way through but have just realized that I have read it already. I have read hundreds of books but am not sure if I could remember 10 titles at the moment. All the stories have blurred in my mind into one story. No matter that I have read it before, it is glorious and I am back in Celtic Britain in A.D. 81 and fully entranced.
